7 Wall Christmas Tree Ideas You Should Try for Your Small Space This Year

We’re halfway through September! For us Filipinos, the beginning of “ber” month signals the fast-approaching Christmastime. It’s time we start thinking of Christmas decorations. If you don’t have room for a traditional Christmas tree, a wall Christmas tree might be for you! This DIY project is a smart way to get the effect of having a Christmas tree in your home without having the bulk of one. Here are some ideas for wall-mounted Christmas trees using garlands, strings, fairy lights, washi tapes, or even family photos.


1. Wall-mounted Christmas tree

6. Washi Tape Christmas Tree

This is also another great idea to have a Christmas tree using washi tapes. Washi tape is a Japanese tape often used to decorate planners, journals, packages, etc. It peels off quite easily making this an ideal material for the walls. You can go with a colorful holiday palette or go minimalist with metallic washi tape like this:

7. String Art Christmas Tree

If you’re up for a string art on your wall, this one is a good alternative Christmas tree. You can use Christmas cards or photos as ornaments. You’d need clear hooks, colored yarn or string, scissors, ruler, pencil, and small pegs.
